Yes – that is true! For those Sea Scouts who do decide to pursue their interest in the sea, it should be noted that both the U.S. Navy and the U.S. Coast Guard provide for paygrade advancement immediately upon enlistment for former Sea Scouts. Every Sea Scout receives a copy of the open letter from the Commander of the U.S. Coast Guard Recruiting Center issued for the Chief Scout Executive Boy Scouts of America. The U.S. Coast Guard enlistment program authorizes the advanced pay grade enlistment of active and qualified members of the Sea Scouts who are high school graduates. Instead of enlisting as a Seaman Recruit (pay grade E-1), a currently qualified Able Seaman Sea Scout may be enlisted as a Seaman Apprentice (E-2), and a currently qualified Quartermaster Sea Scout may be enlisted as a Seaman (E-3).
